Message: [QUOTE="Jedhead, post: 3161691, member: 9518"] All this talk about Bird being chased by the Dragons and them hoping that we'd be willing to pick up a hefty chunk of his salary is quite frankly insane. We all know Bird's history with injuries, but why would we pay around 500K to see him run around against us in the red v's jersey? We are not desperate to find money as we've already got a huge windfall from Fifita moving on. Added to this the potential 650K if TPJ cannot convince the club not to sack him. Furthermore we will have an even bigger war chest when we lose Darbs, Macca and Kahu. Birdy owes us at least two outstanding seasons before he returns to Sydney, and if he has had enough of the joint and not willing to repay the faith we have showed in him then he must find a club to take his whole wage bill on. He owes us at least that. To play for another team while drawing cash from our cap would be such a '**** you' to the club from him that I just don't think he's that type of person. Coates and Bird are two gun centres that any team would kill for as far as I'm concerned. Hope to god the club puts the 'Not for sale' sign up in huge big neon writing. We need him next year more than ever. [/QUOTE]
